Being a parent is a blessing from God, but it comes with its own challenges. Today I am going to advise parents on how not to rub shoulders with their teens following these parenting tips. Establish boundaries of any activities. Rules are like roads, you have to follow one to get to your destination, so if you don't make rules for your teenagers, they'll make their own. Teens who learn from their own mistakes land their parents into hot water lots of times. This is usually brought by not spending sufficient time with them due to working late or leaving your responsibility to schools which already have hundreds of teens to deal with. On the other hand, don't crowd your teens' space, as this will not give room for you to discover their real personality. Inviting their friends for dinner can be a good idea to discover your teens' character via their friends who they hang around with mostly. Another good parenting tip is to be a good role model before they find another one. This is best done before they get to be a teenager.

  The best parenting advice that parents can get, is to seek counseling from a number of experienced parents who have already gone through teenage years successfully while relating to their current situations. Opening good grounds for communication makes your teen open up to you gradually as a parent thus giving the opportunity to counsel them before they go astray leaving you on the receiving end. During the holidays, make sure they're busy by working summer part time jobs. This way your teen digs less into your pocket and knows how to spend money wisely because they have learned how to earn money and to live by a budget. Parents also should balance indoor and outdoor activities for their teens as this builds a bold character in them.  Don't let your teen play video games the whole day; let them go out and socialize with other teens. This way, they will break the habit of being shy or having to deal with stage fright which plays a big role when they are adults and may be shy to face a solo or board interview.

  If you go anywhere in the world, the best parenting skills emanate from one action known as LOVE. Loving your teen involves spending time with them, listening to what they have to say, respecting their feelings or dining together always in order to bring up a conversation and a good family bond. Limit the pressure that you give them as not all teens share the same character with their parents. Just keep a close eye on them to know what they're up to and advice them of their actions, both the good and bad side of it.

 Sex and drugs education is another parenting skill that parents need not to shy away from, talk to your teen about the consequences of this habit or even buy videos for them to get well informed. Parenting skills are developed over time depending on what your teens' behaviors are.
